St Johnstone have signed Bolton Wanderers central defender Mark Connolly on loan until the summer.
The 18-year-old Irishman, who moved from Wolves to West Brom for £1m - could make his Saints debut against Rangers on Wednesday.
Saints manager Derek McInnes said Connolly was recommended by former St Johnstone manager Owen Coyle and his predecessor as Bolton boss.
"Mark comes very highly recommended by Gary Megson," said McInnes.
"And I have seen him in action on a couple of occasions myself.
"I've obviously been able to speak to Owen Coyle about him and he also rates Mark but feels he needs a bit more experience.
"I am sure he will be an asset to us for the remainder of the season."
